Introduction

If you want to work out the tax you need to withhold from payments you make to employees or other workers, you can use the tax withheld calculator.

The calculator takes into account:

  • income tax rates
  • Medicare levy
  • study and training support loan contributions
  • workers residency status
  • registration of employers of working holiday makers
  • tax-free threshold
  • tax offset entitlements.

To use the tax withheld calculator, you'll need your employee's or other worker's tax file number declaration, withholding declaration and Medicare levy variation declaration.

The calculator applies to payments made in the current tax year.
